Unveil Ed, Edd n Eddy: Scam of the Century for Nintendo DS

Ed, Edd and Eddy can’t seem to stay out of
trouble. Cartoon Network Enterprises has given D3Publisher of America, Inc.
(D3PA) the handheld gaming rights to the original series Ed, Edd n Eddy.
Building off of a successful franchise, fans of the hit Cartoon Network series
get the chance to help the Eds tackle their latest predicament when Eddy’s “Who
to Scam and When” book is lost and read by an angry mob of kids. The interactive
video game Ed, Edd n Eddy: Scam of the Century is scheduled for release this
fall for Nintendo DS™.

“D3PA is a proven leader and partner in
interactive gaming and we are fortunate to be working with them again on another
high-profile Cartoon Network release,” said Christina Miller, vice president of
U.S. consumer products for Cartoon Network Enterprises. “We are also excited to
offer fans of the show a truly unique way to interact with the Ed, Edd n Eddy
brand.” \

“D3PA is thrilled to create a brand new game
based on Ed, Edd n Eddy, the longest-running and most successful of Cartoon
Network’s franchises,” said Alison Quirion, vice president of marketing, D3PA.
“The rich character profiles and story elements from the show will be
authentically portrayed in Ed, Ed n Eddy: Scam of the Century, ensuring that the
game will be an immersive experience in to the Eds’ world and a must-have for
fans this fall.”

Ed, Edd n Eddy, an original, half-hour series
from creator and executive producer Danny Antonucci, tells the story of three
best friends who band together to tackle one of life’s most daunting
challenges—puberty. Though they have the same first name and live on the same
cul-de-sac in the suburbs, the three boys’ personalities are as different as
they are ridiculous. They’re genuinely confused by the world, but they’re too
cool to admit it. Bolstered by the power of adolescent ignorance, they plunge
headlong into outlandish summertime adventures that would be unbelievable if
they weren’t so close to the reality of every kid’s life. Ed, Edd n Eddy airs
Monday through Friday at 9:30 a.m. (ET/PT) on Cartoon Network.

Ed, Edd n Eddy: Scam of the Century for Nintendo
DS features an original storyline developed around Eddy losing his precious “Who
to Scam and When” book. When the three friends realize their classmate Kevin has
the book in his hands and an angry mob of kids has developed, they run for the
woods. Splitting up to throw off the crowd, they plan to meet up back at the
cul-de-sac. What they do not know is that several adventures await them on their
quest home. Players take control of the Eds and must make their way through
tricks, traps, angry kids and a barrage of ammunition including soap and
broccoli. Ed, Edd and Eddy finally make their way back to the cul-de-sac only to
find the ultimate obstacle before them: Rolf has built a giant fort to keep the
Eds out forever! Each Ed must use his own special talent to smash, brainstorm or
scam his way inside. Once inside the fort, the Eds regroup to reclaim Eddy’s
scam book. But standing in their way is none other than The Masked Melonhead
Avenger and Splinter—The Wonderwood. Let the final showdown begin!

Ed, Edd n Eddy: Scam of the Century interactive
video game features 13 total stages, special attacks using the touch screen, the
option to blow into the microphone to bring characters back to life, three side
story mini-games and more wacky special items.

Cartoon Network has a strong partnership with
D3PA which has also produced Ben 10: Protector of Earth, the interactive game
based on the hit original series, Ben 10, scheduled for release this fall.
